Re: C's May Abandon B'nai B'rith Tap off

I just can't figure out the Celtic organisation. When
Pitino came on board, he cleaned house, brought his own
people - the latest is CM Newton. But all this while,
you don't hear disapprovals from Red or Russell. Are
there loud blaring music (like the rest of the league)
during games now? Cheerleaders?

where's our tradition?

it's not the same since Ricky's here.

(larry, when are you gonna come save us?)
